Yes, the stars are DDR. But what about shoulder strap itself ?

The strap is an Ossie as well - the pink piping is not the wartime shade. I think it was originally a slip-on that has had the tongue removed... Can you see any stitch marks at the base of the tab underneath?

hi
thats a second patteren east german panzer strap.the first pattern boards are are flatter and detailed like third reich and the color shade is also the same on some examples .also the pips used on major to col. boards from 1956 to 1967 are larger.first patteren boards are very very hard to find.
